I think this has better graphics than NMH, and I was happy with NMH. Was a little worried at first when I heard cell shaded, but this will be fine.

The lack of local or online multi-player will hurt it more than the graphics, along with the fact that there will be far more competition...


Right now, for me personally I am far more interested in The Conduit. That's not to say I will not get both....

Sending to my daughter to college in the Fall. I'll probably be too broke when this comes out no matter how good it is.

Lookin' good!

I didn't buy Red Steel 1 for the multiplayer, and the same thing applies here. I didn't even play the RS1 multiplayer.

Red Steel 2 looks great in a scan, where screenshots usually diminish in quality.

Great song indeed....but I think this one is een better: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWo__6Xn6Qs

Concerning the Scans:the game looks awesome. Never played the first one after hearing all the complaints but I might check this one out. I love games which concentrate more on the art-style rather than on photorealistic graphics....that's also the reason why I believe that Okami is one of the best looking games of all time.

This looks pretty good. One to look out for in the E3 coverage, I think.

English is not perfect, but I tried my best :P

I took the information from a German wii forum which is using the same source of information like this thread.

How generic...

However, the other facts sound pretty cool. The swordfighting seems to be really cool. In the article it says, that depending on how far you move the Wiimote back before striking the power of your attack changes accordingly. No more waggle

Oh, and thanks VivaLaWiida for translating and summarizing the information from the article...so I don't have to read the whole thing on my own.

CAN NOT WAIT!

the wild west meets japan.. Kewl!

If Ennio Morricone did the soundtrack for this, that would automatically make it greatest soundtrack for a video game ever made.
